[PATCH] Threadsafe locale initialization

[Pétur Runólfsson <peturr02 at ru dot is>]

Hi,

This patch attempts to make locale initialization threadsafe, by
using static initialization when possible (locale::facet::_S_c_name)
and initializing other members through __gthread_once
(locale::_S_classic and locale::facet::_S_c_locale). Also, statics
that are initialized statically (locale::_S_categories,
locale::facet::_S_c_name) are declared const.

This is needed so that locale can be initialized at any time during
program execution, and so that facets can be constructed before
locale::classic() is called. This means that locale no longer
depends on iostreams being initialized at the beginning of the
program.

Note that locale::global() and locale::locale() are still
thread-unsafe. 

Tested on i686-pc-linux-gnu.
